The point I'm getting to is, if a user proficient in both powertracks and one of the other better known sequencers was to make a recording of a pop band on each, would it be possible to tell which recording was in powertracks and which was in the better known daw?

Thanks

No difference at all. Data is data, there are several working pro's on this forum who have gone over this topic many times over the years. Where the difference can lie is in mastering software. If you are advanced enough to understand and use something like Ozone, T-Racks or Sound Forge then maybe you would get some real benefit from using one of the more "sophisticated" DAW's. Those programs are $3-500 just to master your recording. If you're not there yet, then Power Tracks/Real Band is all you need. PT/RB has a complete suite of mastering plug-in's as well and many of the pro's here who know more about it than I do have said those plug-in's are world class. You've got to be a pretty good and experienced recording/mixing/mastering engineer to tell and use the differences between something like Sound Forge and PG Music's plug-ins.
